w h o i.,knoyrn .to the rearicne of that *pleated .
Magltaine by the signature of oPeha."
The poem is . illustrative of the privations and
serroWs: that were endured by the Scotch Cove
nanters; in the early . days of their existence, as a
religiose met; when, bunted like' wolves, they
fixed their homes and their' temples, IS which they
'sought to worship the only true and living God,
among the crags and cliffs and glens of Scotland.
Although It be ten*, it has been justly remarked
by a' histories! writer: diet 'a
caiii;intithi,
tiotkin their preaching from the pulpit, and their
teachings by example, - frequently proceeded mare
in the spirit of fanaticism, than of sober, religious
feeling, and that in their antagonistic ardor, they
did not hesitate to carry the persecutions of which
they themselves so justly complained, into the
camp of the adversary--eacriticing, in their mis
taken seal, even the ennobling arts of architecture,
sculpture and painting, as adjuncts of idle worship
—still it is to be remembered, that the aggression
emanated not from them ; and that the rights
they contended for were the most sacred and in
valuable that man can possess—the freedom of
worshipping God according to the dictates of con
science. They sincerely believed that the princi
ples which they maintained were right ; and their
adherence to these with unalterable constancy
through good report and through bad report—in
the hour of privation, and 'tottering; and death—
in the silence of the prison cell, not less than in
the excitement of the battle-field—by the blood
stained hearth, on the scaffold, and at the stake
—forms a noble chapter in the history of the hu
man mind—of man as an accountable creature..
It should be recollected that these religions per
secutions
were not mere things of a Jay, but were
continued through at least three entire generations.
They extended from the accession of James VI,
to the English throne, down to the ' revolution of
1635, almost a century, during which many thou
sands perished.
In reference the following stanzas, i t should be,
remembered that, duriug the holding of their con
rankles—which frequently in the more trouble)•
some times took place amid mountain solitudes,
and during the nights—a sentinel was stationed
on some commanding height, in the neighborhood,
to give warning of the approach of danger :
Ho I placid watcher of the hill,
What of the night I—what of the night 1
The winds are low, the woode are still,
The counties, star* are sparkling bright;
Prom out this bolutlorY moorland glen.
By the alry.wilil-fowl only trod,
We raise our hymn, unheard of men,
- To Thee I an omnipresent God
Jehovah ! though no sin appear,
Through earth our aimless path to lead,
We know, we feel Thee ever near,
A present help in time of need—
Near, as when pointing out the way,
For ever in thy people's sight,
A pillared wreath of smoke by day,
Which turned to fiery flame at night !
Whence came the summons forth to go !
From thee awoke the warning sound,
"Out to your tents, 0 Israel ! Lo !
The heathen's warfare girds thee round !
Sons of the faithful I up—away I
The lamb must of the wolf beware ;
The falcon seeks the dove for prey ;
The fowler spreads his cunning snare !"
Day set in gold ; 'twas peace around—
'Twas seeming peace by field and flood ;
We woke, and on our lintel. found
The CMS/ of wrath—the mark of blood.
Lord ! in thy cause we mocked at fears,
We scorned the ungodly's threatening words,
Beat out our pruning-hooks to
And turned our ploughshare=words!
Degenerate Scotland ! days have been,
Thy soil when only freedom trsd—
When mountain crag and valley green
Poured forth the loud acclaim to God I
The fire which liberty imparts
Refulgent in each patriot eye,
And graven on a nation's heart,
The WORD---fOr which we stand or die !
Unholy change ! The scorers chair
Is now the seal of those who rule ;
Tortures, and bonds, and death, the share
Of all except the tyrant's tool ;
That faith in which our father's breathed,
And had their life for which they died—
That priceless heir loom they bequeathed
Their sons—our impious fosederide !
So we have left our homes behind,
And we have belted on the sword.
And we in solemn league hare joined,
lirei! covenanted with the Lord,
Never to seek those homes ag4n
Never to give the sword Its sheath,
Until our right of faith remain
Unfettered as the air we breathe I

•
"Figure to yourself a very sma ll person
—the very eniallest yen have ever seen a
bove the species of the dwarf. With his
back turned towards you, you would be
inclined to suppose that the glossy black.
hair and drooping shoulders belonged to a
girl in male disgbise ; the face turned
round, you were struck by the prominent,
clear, dark eyes, the olive complexion, and
the disappearance of effeminacy in, the
strong jaw and chin. The work which
formed Louis Blano's title to a seat at the
table of the Protisiintal Government was
protkibly, in the - minds sof Lamertine -and
Monet, the elegant smite that had done
so much to undermine and discredit Louis
Phillippe and his family; but the work
which gave him credit in the eyes •of the
working classes, and on which he himself
took his stand, was a brochure, unknown
or forgotten by the republic of letters, on
the organization of labor.
"It has been said that Louis Blanc pos
sessed the sensuality and sensibility of the
Southern races, with a deep seated pride
that induces him rather to shrink from
the society of gross men ; that he is touch
ed with misanthropy, and little respects
the masses whose champion he became.—
Such inconsistencies find their explana
tion in marked sensibility and deep-seat
ed ambition. It is not the philosophical
temperament; and no man can be less a
philosopher than the ardent apostle of a
new society. The "Organization de Tra
vail" is a true picture of the author's mind.
His analysis of the composition of socie
ty, his painful statistics of beggary, pros
titution, ill-regulated labor, of lives closed
in hospitals—all this is in the most pain
fully fascinating style of narration: the
cry that rises from his pierced soulagaint
society thrills through the reader ; but
there stops the part of the inquirer."
LEDRU ROLLIN
"Notwithstanding that I was under the
influence of prejudice againt this gentle
man, entirely on account of his public con
duct, a prejudice too generally shared to
make the avowal a shame, I must confess
that his oratorical powei took me by sur
prise. Sincerity of conviction is admit
tedly a main element of oratorical success,
and there could be no doubt o f the sinceri
ty of Ledru Rollin's love for theyepub
lic, and of his apprehension of a second
Bonaparte. The Revolution had thrown
up many men, but of those who had hith
erto lain in obscurity, very few proved of
any value,even in the way of talent. The
names that still shone out most conspicu
ously were old familiar names. The Re
public had not yet found its incarnation.—
The nearest representation of its spirit
seemed to be Ledru Rollin. In his novel
position, this revolutionist exhibited qual
ities such as almost caused him to be re
garded as a new man. The Chamber of
Deputies was not his sphere. He entered
it under the repugnant fame of a prosecu
ted, and if not pardoned, neglected speech.
Violence so great as to provoke tbe arm
of the law, and so pointless as, on mature
reflection, to inspire but contempt, proved
buten unpropitious herald. Nor did the new
hero, who aspired to the leadership of the
Republican party. invoke much reveren
tial dread. He looked a man that would
elbow others out of his way, take the place
by storm, lose his breath, slip, and tumble
amidst jibes and laughter.
His person is large and bulky, his
face Full, round and ruddy, hie eyes small
and restless; and taken together, one
would say that he was a jovial, reckless
fellow, full of animal spirit, who while as,
piring to lead, was likely to become an in•
strument in the hands of acute schemers,
whose bidding he would do, be that bid
ding what it might, rather than not be the
chief. His nature is rather thoughtless
than bad ; but capable of badness, through
a readiness to accept, as inevitable neces
sities, the most perverse rules of political
conduct. He might be 'need es the pow:.
Mid, blind battering ram of factions, to
level the walls of the StAld, but never could
he rise to the rank of an intelligent leader
or evince firmness suffiiient to Oct as Mod

Mr. Oorkran afterwards compares Le
dru Rollin to •Danton . .
Danion,, he was a politician—not
a socialist. lie had nothing in common
with the Blances, Leroux and Proudhons
—the Cabets, Raspaila, and Blanquis.—
His idea of revolution was not spuriously
philosophical. He wanted to erects armies
of the North and armies of the South.—
Ho' panted to see the Ftepublieen flag, red

He would re.enaci:the revolution, with all
its consequences,;:Would continue the
Conventiim and:Make it perpetual. In all
this he was thiarolighly In earnest and so
far had the advantage of earnestness ; but
as he was Obliged to tamper with Social
ist and Communist sects; whose doctrines
he could not comprehend, and must have
hated and despised for the obstindes they
threw in his way, so did his earoestrices
give way to teinPeriXing. for which he was
unfitted, and by - dogreeithe beanie area
and more weak.
"Upon the day whieb•first -brought Le
dru Rollin before tur, he appeared to the
most advantage. • He was not at that pe
eled comprised by d.amaging negociations
with Socialists. He had the feeling of the
thoroughly Republican part of the Assem
bly with him against the thrsteletted Em
pire. And was that Republic kir which
he had so long, and at length, so vietcirious
ly struggled, about to emerge into a new
sort of monarhy ? Via it to be sacrificed
to the shadow of a name—to a popular de
lusion ? Had they been engaged in stiaking
for themselves a. trap-in which they were
to fall, amidst the laughter of the World t
So thought, so felt, so feared the disciple
of Denton ; and in the reality of his fear
he become eloquent, touching, powerful,
and rose to the dignitY of first' champiort
of the Freeeh Repulic. The Assembly
responded to every sentence—the audience
and the orator were at home ; as he felt
they felt; as he spoke they responded;
he was master of the Assembly. Ai he
descended he was . compliinented by a
throng of admirers ; he was congratulated
and embraced, and—beaten. The mys
terious murmur of the rising emeuts shook
each hand as it dropped. the ball into the
urn. Nevertheless, the orator had fairly
won a triumph, and it was his greatest,
and indeed last ; for lie was nearer the
edge of dismissal than he could have
dreamed."
GARMALDI.—Once , ht lived in Chitin
natie—lt may not be tiMuliresting to know
that Garibaldi, the leader of the ins4ree
tionists of Rome, once kept a public house
on Sixth-et. between Plum and Western
Row, in this city. His house was for
some time one of the stopping places of the
celebrated Charles Hammond, as editori
als from his pen will show, and as any
man who has a file of his paper may see.'
He kept liquor, but his eatables and fami
liar yet gentlemanly converse formed the
principal attractions for Hammond. Many
a time, our old citizens infortn us, did the
veteran editor refer to Garibaldi as the
prince of good eating and good company.
From Garibaldi's industry and good man
agement in this city he made money, and
when he left for Italy he remarked that
his 325,008, cash that he had amassed
would make him as wealthy in Rome as
Griffin Taylor and others of great wealth,
&c., wore considered here. At the time
he left our city quite a large meeting of res
pectable persons congregated at his house
and the proceedings of the meeting were
published in the city papers of 1838. A
grand supper was prepared and partaken
of, toasts drank, &c. A friend of ours,
from whom we obtain this information,
remembers a remark of Garibaldi's at the
time. He said : : "Before long there will
be a revolution in Europe, and I wish to
have a hand in it." By the late foreign
news it will have been observed that bug
name has figured largely.--Cincinnati

,At eix. .ci'eloch came more despatches, and
verbal inquiries, all of which were answered
without any delay. My dinner consisted of
a glass of wine, a piece of ham, and some
bread, which I had on the table beside me, and
disposed of with the best appetite as I was
writing. The Representatives, with one ex
ception, went away ; the one remaining sat
down at the side of Kossuth and began to help
us. This made five secretaries; and to give
you some oonception of the labors of the even
ing; I will tell you that from half-past seven
to half-past eight, he dictated to us, at the same
time, five letters, all of different contents !
Gas of them was to Dembinski, one to Bern,
the third to Paris, the fourth to Vienna, and
the fifth to Gyongyos, two were in German,
one in French, and one in Hungarian!
• Is it a man who can do such things!
After this he was for some time engaged
with figures, Which he reckoned and reckoned
in a state of almost perfect abstraction. While
be-was-thus occupied, his friend and family
physician, the Dr. and Professor Ilugat Pal
came in and interrupted him. He greeted the
Doctor, kindly pointed him to a chair, and re
turned to his occupation as before. The Doc
tor took his hand, which he yielded willingly,
as if it did not belong to him, and held it for
some Sileen minutes, feeling the beat of the
pulse, after which he withdrew, without any
further notice from Kossuth.
At 11 o'clock "the head of one of my col
leagues was already nodding, and both myself
and the one opposite me could hardly keep our

The 'clock strulik 12, and the noise of the
departure of the copyist from the neighboring
mom Fanged him from his reflections. "What
time is it, gentlemen 1" he asked us, and when
we told him it was just after 12, he became

the answer, and be begeri to walk up and down

from having such an idea, he said : "There is
work to be done yet."

The yoang man or woman to be married has
bat little to do in the choice of their respect
lye companions. Their parents or aged rola
tiorts having charge of them make the selec
tion and all other arrangements necessary to
unite them in marriage. They have no fixed
age at which they are united in marriage. If
parents are rich and able to obtain wives for
their sons, they will marry them from five
years and upwards. Many never see their
intended companions till the wedding•day has
come.
The parents will select a girl among their
relations, generally a cousin to the son they
wish to marry. Ascertaining by their friends
whether her parents will consent to the match,
they will go to a Bramin to consult concern
ing the Ponerreat of the two intended to be
united in marriage. The Poruttum is ten
points In which there should be an agreement
between the horoscopes of the two individu
als intended for marriage, in order that the
match may be auspicious. In order to ascer
tain this fact, they will tell the Bramin the
time of their birth and their names; then they
ask him whether they agree, or whether their
Poruttum is good. Atter ho has consulted
the ten points, in which they should agree in
Astrology, ho will tell them. If they ag*,

The Brautin will also find out by his astrol•

This is called the Morton-run—the deter
mining by astrology of an auspicious hour or
fixed time for solemnizing marriages, laying
the foundations of cities, temples, &a., The
parents, not satisfied with what the Bramin
has said, will go and consult a Phackare; Or
Diviner, who are of those who practise severe
austerity, and are supposed to be very holy.
While the parents arc approaching, in order to
consult him, he will he seated, beating a small
drum, making various unnatural gestures, dis

and wild as if really possessed of the Devil;
then they will say, " we have thought of some
thing—tell us what it is." Atter being great

gin." Then they ask, " will it succeed I "
He pretends to ascertain the fact by certain
black beans which he uses, and replies, " it
will succeed very well. But you must pro

fortune-telling. They wear a string over
their shoulders like the Bromine, and have a

book is now in my possession, tieing deliver

two to be united in marriage. He takes a
string and places it at random between thin
leaves of the book, there 118,PRICTENDS toread,
(for I know that some of them cannot read it
all,) and says, , "it will be the best match in
the world." This book, from which he di
vines, is made of the leaves of the.Palmira
tree. They are much used for writing upon
in this country.
Others, still not satisfied, will go to temple
of the god which they worship, hiking with
them two binichils of flowers, one red end
thoether white, and Placing them before the
Idol, will tell one of their small children to go
and take one. If the child takes the rod
one, they will he sorrowful. and any, 4' let it
be according to fate ;" but if the child takes
the white bunch they will be rejoiced as it is
an auspicious - • '
After consulting than and. various other
similar omens, they rest satisfied with the
match. Then the father, uncles, brothers,
and cousins of the young man to be married
will go to the house of the girl's father, in or
der to speak 'to her friends calcurning the
match; if the/ give 'their consent, they will
appoint a future time for them to come again.
When that date has come, the friends of the
young man, except widows, will go in odd
numbers tithe house of the girl, biking with
them turmeric, betelnuts, cocoanuts, %in odd
numbers, sor 70 sandal d eat, flowers and gar
lands, hasingtheir cheeks painted, and taking
with than some of the dowry jewels. Fe
males defy. paint their cheeks red. They are
exceedingly` Superstitious in relation to odd
nuroltirre. When this company approaches
the house of the young girl, the men will come

head, fins. If they find none of these marks,
they say, " it will be a good match ; " if there
are finite few, they will say nothing about it.
Tribe is the daughter of a near relation, they
will not mind these things; hut if these marks
rate found on the daughter of a distant relation,
they are "bad omens "—the match is given
op t and they return home in silence, or seek n
match some where else. If the inauspicious
marks are not found, they will assemble to
gether, placing the things they brought with
them in their midst, and settle the PaItAISUN,
or the nuptial present which the young man
must give. After this is settled, the sister of
the young man will take the new cloth they
brought with them and g so it to the young
girl to wear. Then spreading some Pane, that
is, rice in the husk,.on the. ground, over that
Plantain leaves, and upon them salt, she will
make the young girl stand on this larking to
wards t h e east, and place in her lap all the
things they have brought, and paint hereheeks
red. This is the naptial promise. The pa
rents then announce the time for the couple to
be married, previously given to theca by the
Ilremin. After that a feast is prepared, of
which all partake ; then separating theyoung
man's party return to their homes.
Thus you can ace that the persons most
nearly concerned in this affair have the least to
do with it. They are ignorant oferteh 'other's
dispositions and oharacter, and it Is not sur
prising, when they find themselves thrown
together for life, that disgust and hatred to
wards each other should arise is ;their -minds
and be carried out is their action's. Hence,
there is but little marriage chastity in , this
